Disclaimer: I don't own anything from Family Guy. Trust me, when the tribute happens, you'll know. Probably just a one time only thing, however.


Sorry I'm a day late. I wasn't up all night just three nights ago but also two nights ago, so I spent most of yesterday sleeping.

Casa De Elric

As the students exited the Hall and followed their prefects back to their dormitories and the teachers headed for their own rooms, Harry and his gang headed out to the large hotel building waiting for them. They met the crowd of Negi's students, InuYasha's group, and all of the ninja standing around a large sign out front that read, "Caution! Floor has just been waxed!"

Was that sign there earlier? Harry thought to himself.

"Hang on," Ron interjected. "This sign wasn't here when we left to go to the castle, and the Elric Brothers had left before us. So when was this sign put here?"

There was a long silence, followed by a great deal of chattering.

"Geez," Asuna said at last. "Are we gonna go in or not?"

As if to answer her question, the doors opened and Edward and Alphonse greeted them in the lobby. "Welcome to Casa de Elric."

Nearly everyone covered their mouths to avoid laughing, but Ed noticed. "What?! I thought it was a good name." Even Al giggled a little.

"You have got to admit, it rolls off the tongue pretty well," Lee observed.

"The keys to your rooms are on the rack behind us. Make sure you have them with you at all times," Ed went on, gesturing towards a key tree situated on the front counter. "If you should lose them, just come to our office in the castle and we'll take care of it. The keys were easy to make. All you need to do is bring us a little metal to make a replacement.

"Oh, and one more thing," Ed said as they prepared to leave. "One of the house elves at Hogwarts has volunteered to come in and clean and wax the floors daily. Had a funny name, too. 'Winky.' Ha! So please be careful."

Harry, Ron and Hermione looked at each other at the sound of the name, Winky. The last time they'd seen that elf, she had been positively miserable over being fired by her Master, the late Barty Crouch Sr.

Ed broke into a walk. "One wrong step and WOAH!" He had slipped on an extra slippery patch of floor, almost flipped completely over backwards and slid right into the wall, face first! For a moment, no one spoke, until Edward got up, revealing two puffy cheeks, a bloody nose and a black eye.

A moment later, not a single person wasn't laughing, even Edward. He had to laugh at his own clumsiness and his awkward, yet amusing timing. "I think I'll have a talk with that elf. I guess she used too much wax. Heh heh!" he laughed as he rubbed his swollen face and wiping the dripping blood from his nose. Everyone laughed harder still.

Just then, as if to illustrate his point, a strangely–familiar–looking baby with an odd–shaped head slid across the floor on his naked butt, laughing, "I'M 'NUDES ON ICE'!"

"Hey, was that –?" Ron started to ask, but a dark figure poked his head in the front door and said, "Just pretend you didn't see nothin'!"

"And who was –?" Hermione started as the door closed, but InuYasha stopped her.

"Don't bother asking us, 'cause we have no idea." He'd given up asking himself that question. When he wants to reveal himself, he will.

And with that, Edward and Al returned to the castle while everyone else settled into their rooms for the night.

My next chapter is going to be a rather long one, to make up for how short this one was. Most of it will take place in the bath again, so it have some fan service as well, so I suggest that no one below the age of sixteen read the next one.

Anyway, this is the last time I'm going to ask: Should I add Blood+ to my story? Yes or No? The next chapter is the deadline for votes. The votes stand at 1 – 0 in favor of going ahead with it. Make your votes count! Make your voices heard!

See you in four days.
